Cooking Instructions for Chicken Parmesan
- 1
Prepare the Chicken
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Breading the Chicken
Set up a breading station with three dishes: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs mixed with grated Parmesan cheese. Dip each chicken breast first in flour, then in the eggs, and finally in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.

Fry the Chicken
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the breaded chicken breasts and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and place them on a baking sheet.

Add Sauce and Cheese
Top each chicken breast with marinara sauce, followed by mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle additional Parmesan cheese on top if desired.
